It seems too big to have been used for any passenger car application.
I wonder if it might be for the gearbox from one of the postwar marine engines.

The ivory plastic steering wheels were standard on the Custom 8's only, optional on other models which had a dark brown hard rubber wheel as standard equipment. Deluxe and Super 8's were 2 toned by painting the ribbed area on top of the spokes a lighter color.

I'm not sure how the export models may have differed from the domestic ones, but the 6 cylinder models probably had about the same trim as the Packard Eight Series. There is some good information on standard equipment for the various models in the 1948 salesman's fact book.

Great suggestion, but the distance between the flats on these plugs is 9/16" so a standard 1/2'' drive socket won't do the trick.

The same points were used for all Delco distributors in Packards from 1947 to 1956. The original Delco number is 1918148 an these were also used for 1949 to 1955 Cadillac and 1940 to 1955 Oldsmobile and Pontiac 8 cylinder cars.

All Junior Packards from 1935 on used standard 1/2" square head pipe plugs for fill and drain openings in the rear axle.

The 160's and 180's used an R-9A unit which has stronger internal parts then the R-9 used on the Junior cars. Bigger one-way clutch and 4 pinion planetary for example.
Look for the number cast on the side of the case.

Looks like Packard did cast the mounts "upside down" for 1935 and 1936.
The 1937 and newer cars that I am familiar with are the other way around and the pump that you have would work fine for those models. I have an AC catalog from 1945 and was going to post some images from it but noticed that it was copyrighted by GM. I can send you copies of what I have if you PM me with your email address. It looks like you have the correct type of pump for your car which is an AC Type X but the arm is upside down for the 1935 and 1936 cars.
